The Badgers (29-7) advanced to the Final Four for the first time since 2000. They face the winner of Sunday's Midwest Region final between Michigan and Kentucky.

In a game that was back-and-forth and physical throughout, Wisconsin went ahead 54-52 on Traevon Jackson's layup with 1 minute, 11 seconds remaining in regulation. Rondae Hollis-Jefferson tied it for Arizona with a dunk with 36 seconds left.

The Big Ten Conference's Badgers never trailed in overtime.

The Wildcats had a chance to win, but Nick Johnson's final shot was late — and off the mark.

Johnson led Pacific 12 champion Arizona (33-4) with 16 points.
